if you went to school with CR england, why didnt you stay there?

Most training companies aren't going to accept a different carrier's school. I'm actually surprised that Swift will take you after attending CREngland's school. You could do a lot worse than Swift and after 6 months to a year with no problems you can move to a different company.

Who knows, you may like Swift so much you stay.

why didn't i stay at England? because i heard 10 horror stories a day from there drivers. and they almost force you into the lease.

You could always try Millis. You will have to attend their school which will cost you $500 and a years commitment, but that is probably the best you can do short of going to an independant school and shelling out $3000 or more.

I think he already owes England. No way he should go back through school and be bound to 2 contracts simultaneously.

Again, if Swift will accept England's school AND give tuition re-imbursement I don't see why it's that hard of a decision.

Just got off the phone with Arrow Trucking. I have my bus ticket to start monday . They seem like a good company and from what i read on here there pretty descent

WOW! At one time Arrow wouldn't accept a carrier school without experience.

Congratulations!
